I tried Aldi's sell-out LED mask - an acne miracle I needed
But thanks to my doctor, a course of Lymecycline antibiotics and a few tubes of Epiduo cream, we are almost there. Now my skin seems under control and I only have scarring to rectify, I've been looking for ways I can continue to treat (or help) it, with the latest trendy products, of course. It won't be a surprise that I came across the Shark CryoGlow LED mask, which every beauty influencer seems to be parading around the house with (shout out to Celebrity Big Brother's Donna Preston and Ella Rae Wise for their viral LED mask moments earlier this year). But at nearly £300, not even the thought of a potential (and painful) acne return is worth that, in my honest opinion. However, did you know what I stumbled across when looking for dupes of the Shark LED mask? None other than Aldi's very own version, for less than £15. In a nutshell, the interesting devices have become hugely popular over the last year or so due to their 'non-invasive' approach to tackle various skincare issues, including eczema, mild to moderate acne, psoriasis and sun damage, all from the comfort of your own home. The new form of technology 'harnesses the power of light-emitting diodes (LEDs), which then stimulate skin cells when they are exposed to the skin repeatedly,' reports the BBC. Aldi's LED face mask was previously a sell-out and now I know why (Image: Newsquest) Now, we all know Aldi smashes it out of the park with their beauty replicas, but because the sell-out LED Face Mask only costs £12.99, I had to give it a go. I was so intrigued by how something so cheap could work literal skin wonders – so did it get the job done? Aldi's LED Face Mask is just one of the budget-friendly supermarket's cult-favourite beauty buys to return over the last few days, as part of its pamper range. The LED face mask is back alongside the eye massager (£12.99) and neck massager (£12.99). It comes with a USB charging wire, features seven different light settings (such as red, blue, green, pink) and a built-in Lithium Battery, aiming to help reduce the appearance of 'fine lines, redness and inflammation'. Pretty impressed this LED mask has seven settings to choose from (Image: Newsquest) Aldi has described it as the 'perfect tool to deliver a spa-worthy facial at home, for less'. Although it was comfy to wear and stayed put, first impressions were that it's not the most attractive-looking device and does look quite flimsy. But I can tell you now, do not let that put you off – remember, 'it's not about what's on the outside that matters, it's about what's on the inside.' I did my usual skincare routine, climbed into bed and prepared for a date night with just me and the LED mask. After reading the manual booklet, which has lots of useful wavelength information, I then had a thought about what LED setting I wanted to try. Have you tried any LED masks before? (Image: Newsquest) I figured it would be best to give the blue light a go for around five minutes (as it was the first try) because it's meant to target acne by helping to get rid of bacteria, prevent future outbreaks and create clearer and calmer skin. And do you know what? It basically did what it says on the tin (or Google). Specifically, on the morning after the first session, without even remembering that I had used it, I was washing my face as I got ready for work, and suddenly realised how soft my skin felt, and it took me a few minutes to realise what I had done differently. I then grabbed a mirror from the bathroom and noticed my skin was nowhere near as puffy or red as it would usually be after being asleep. A post shared by Aldi UK (@aldiuk) Days later, I started paying attention to a cyst-like spot that had been forming on my cheekbone and realised it hadn't grown to its usual second head size. Recommended reading: I tried Aldi's sell-out 'fish wine' and now that's all I want to drink I tested the Aldi robot vacuum against Amazon's top-rated Ultenic - I'm in love I tried Aldi's new Smart Kettle and this feature was a gamechanger Instead, it had stopped growing and was shrinking – what an incredible result for something that essentially costs the same as a few coffees. Since then, I've been playing around with the other LED light modes to see what other changes it could make to my skin, but as I've not been using it for very long, it might take a little longer for more magic. I'm not sure how this little Aldi miracle works so well, but if you've been desperate to get your hands on an LED face mask to see if it could help your skin issues (without the hefty price tag), now is your chance.
